Selvachiara


Situated near Montegabbione, Selvachiara is an authentic Italian farmhouse offering a highly functional layout and walls that exude timeless history.


Nestled in a pristine, emerald-green valley in the municipality of Montegabbione, this beautifully preserved traditional stone farmhouse offers a turnkey property for those seeking the ultimate Italian countryside lifestyle. It provides complete privacy, surrounded by dense forests and panoramic hillside views, while maintaining authentic rustic elegance throughout.

Selvachiara is a stunning five-hectare estate comprising fertile fields, Mediterranean scrub, truffle grounds, and a lush olive grove. At its heart sits a stately late 19th-century farmhouse with original outbuildings, commandingly positioned atop a hill.

The home is distributed over two well-proportioned levels, featuring classic architectural details such as rich terracotta flooring and magnificent ceilings with exposed wooden beams and terracotta tiles.

The entrance opens into generous, interconnected living and dining areas. The main living room is a cozy, atmospheric space anchored by a massive traditional brick fireplace. A beautiful arched glass-paned door floods the room with natural light and opens directly to the outside. The heart of the home is a spacious, rustic country kitchen. It features a secondary open brick fireplace, custom wood cabinetry, a decorative tiled backsplash, and ample space for a large family dining table.

On ground floor there is also a large office or reading room, and a small area that can be used as detached studio apartment.

A central internal staircase leads up to the first floor, which is entirely dedicated to the sleeping quarters. The floor plan outlines four distinct, well-sized rooms.

Selvachiara in general is presented like a striking two-story stone build that perfectly preserves its historical charm. It features classic terracotta roof tiles, elegant brick archways framing the windows and doors, and wrought-iron window grilles.

The property includes three versatile outbuildings: one rustic annex adjacent to the porch; a second nearby structure, partially renovated and equipped with a working external oven; and a third historic ruin located approximately 50 meters from the primary residence.
